About This Section

EntrezGene summary for MYH7:
Muscle myosin is a hexameric protein containing 2 heavy chain subunits, 2 alkali light chain
subunits, and 2 regulatory light chain subunits. This gene encodes the beta (or slow) heavy chain
subunit of cardiac myosin. It is expressed predominantly in normal human ventricle. It is also
expressed in skeletal muscle tissues rich in slow-twitch type I muscle fibers. Changes in the
relative abundance of this protein and the alpha (or fast) heavy subunit of cardiac myosin
correlate with the contractile velocity of cardiac muscle. Its expression is also altered during
thyroid hormone depletion and hemodynamic overloading. Mutations in this gene are associated with
familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, myosin storage myopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, and Laing
early-onset distal myopathy. [provided by RefSeq]

About This Section

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: MYH7_HUMAN, P12883 (See protein sequence)
Recommended Name: Myosin-7  
Size: 1935 amino acids; 223097 Da
Subunit: Muscle myosin is a hexameric protein that consists of 2 heavy chain subunits (MHC), 2
alkali light chain subunits (MLC) and 2 regulatory light chain subunits (MLC-2)
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm, myofibril. Note=Thick filaments of the myofibrils
Miscellaneous: Each myosin heavy chain can be split into 1 light meromyosin (LMM) and 1 heavy
meromyosin (HMM). It can later be split further into 2 globular subfragments (S1) and 1 rod-shaped
subfragment (S2)
Miscellaneous: The cardiac alpha isoform is a 'fast' ATPase myosin, while the beta isoform is a
'slow' ATPase

  • Defects in MYH7 are the cause of cardiomyopathy familial hypertrophic type 1 (CMH1)
    [MIM:192600]. Familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a hereditary heart disorder characterized by
    ventricular hypertrophy, which is usually asymmetric and often involves the interventricular
    septum. The symptoms include dyspnea, syncope, collapse, palpitations, and chest pain. They can be
    readily provoked by exercise. The disorder has inter- and intrafamilial variability ranging from
    benign to malignant forms with high risk of cardiac failure and sudden cardiac death
  • Defects in MYH7 are the cause of myosin storage myopathy [MIM:608358]. In this disorder,
    muscle biopsy shows type 1 fiber predominance and increased interstitial fat and connective
    tissue. Inclusion bodies consisting of the beta cardiac myosin heavy chain are present in the
    majority of type 1 fibers, but not in type 2 fibers
  • Defects in MYH7 are the cause of scapuloperoneal myopathy MYH7-related (SPMM)
    [MIM:181430]; also called scapuloperoneal syndrome myopathic type. Scapuloperoneal myopathy was
    initially described as "une forme hereditaire d'atrophie musculaire progressive" beginning in the
    lower legs and affecting the shoulder region earlier and more severely than distal arm
  • Defects in MYH7 are a cause of cardiomyopathy dilated type 1S (CMD1S) [MIM:160760].
    Dilated cardiomyopathy is a disorder characterized by ventricular dilation and impaired systolic
    function, resulting in congestive heart failure and arrhythmia. Patients are at risk of premature
    death
  • Defects in MYH7 are the cause of Laing early-onset distal myopathy (MPD1) [MIM:160500].
    MPD1 is an autosomal dominant disorder which differs from other distal myopathies in that onset is
    as early as 4 years of age. Selective weakness of the anterior tibial muscles is followed by
    weakness of the finger extensors and selected proximal muscle groups such as the hip abductors and
    rotators, the shoulder abductors and the sternocleidomastoids
